My reading comprehension on first waking up was terrible. I thought we were disagreeing, but I can see you were clearly adding to my statement, not contradicting it. :)

Love that quote from McCarthy, btw. I have not seen that before. Is there more in the context of where that came from?

It's from this: http://www-formal.stanford.edu/jmc/history/lisp/lisp.html

I'd seen this link before, but clearly hadn't read it as well as I'd thought I'd done in the past. Likely I was too unfamiliar with the techs to really grok what I was reading at the time. Thanks for sharing!
